    You thought that since I was on hols that I wouldn't be keeping tabs on you, right? Wrong. hahaha.
    I have located this strange contraption (called a Tid Maskin in Swedish) in a small, secret room under the dungeon in a castile. For a fee, I can travel in time and space to the GardenStew website for this posting. It is nothing sort of a miracle, I tell you. Ahhhhh--isn't modern technology great! ;) ...Thank you, H.G.

    Well, I just wanted to check in and say "Hello" and give you a brief update.

    We have been in Sweden all this time, but are now leaving the country today and heading over to Denmark. We are about half way through our holiday now.

    We have been dividing our time between "cultural things (musea and castles) and amusement parks for the children. We have had some great campgrounds and I have taken loads of pics to show you when we get back.

    Of course sorting them and getting them ready for posting will take some time, as there are so many...but also there will be all the washing to do, etc. But no worries, I will get around
    to it as soon as possible.

    I am sending lots of hugs to you all...and letting you know that I should be home in another week and a half or so...(don't hold me to that). :)

    Take care, and happy gardening!
    Droopy

    Thank you all for your wishes.

    FRANK & KK--I'm afraid that something went terribly wrong with that "Time Machine" when I was returning to the present in Sweden.
    Did you ever see "The Fly"? Well, it would appear that there has been a "glitch"--some sort of molecular exchange during the re-integration phase.
    How did I know that that fool, Sjoerd would try and stowaway on the Time Machine. Tch!
    I am afraid to look in the mirror now. There is a reason that I was hiding behind that wooden plant in the intro pic, you see. Oh dear me, what have I gone and done.

    ....OMG! It just dawned on me--I wonder how HE looks now with some of MY molecules!! :eek: Yikes!!

    :D :D :D Soooo busted Sjoerd! :D

    Thanks for posting my greeting to all the Stewbies, that was very kind of you.

    Hi all, I've missed you a lot even though I've had a lovely holiday. Temps were around 30 degs C for weeks, and in Sweden (!) we had 34 deg C for days. Very hot, but also very nice. :D

    I won't be able to catch up with all the posts on the Stew, there are 1,974 of them, so if anybody have important news they wish to tell, please do so here.

    Off to attack the jung.... eh... garden shortly. Photos will come, but you'll have to wait for a rainy day.

    Nice that you could come in for a few minutes to say "Hi". If you do not correspond again soon, we'll have to send out a search party.

    ....Praying for rain up there soon. ;)

    Great to have you back Droopy.
    I missed that first post thru Sjoerd, my youngest grandson was here and I wasn't on the computer very much so it really did seem like you had a time machine when I was reading all of this. :rolleyes:

    Glad you had a great time. Really looking forward to the photos.
